I will lock myself high in my estate
And scream out the window to your ghost
When you keep me up late
Say the words, say the words
Say that you love me
We were cold and sick with love
I'm still looking for something to cure me But it's never enough
Say the words, say the words
Say you won't leave me
When whiskey's pouring out and withering my brain and eyes
Still I can make you out
And now you must think that I am vile
You used to take my hand when we ran through the grange
At least for a while
Say the words, say the words
Say you won't leave me
When it's cold and raining I hear Catherine's voice
Screaming come right back to me
And I'll starve myself, neglect my health
And soon we'll both be dancing happily
Say the words, say the words
Say you won't leave me
Take my hand, wrap your body around me
Press your fingers to my lips
Entangled in our loneliness
